Pepper's was recommended to me by my neighbor as well as my venue. We couldn't have made a better choice. We got married in Aug 2014 and ever since we have been getting rave reviews from our guests about how delicious the food was. The tastings we made our final decisions from...

June 26, 2014 we hired Peppers to cater a wedding at Glen Manor House in RI. The food, service ,staff and presentation could not have been better.

Jody, Lisa, and the other people at Peppers were phenomenal before and during our wedding. The food was beyond delicious and the staff was so accomodating. Several people told my husband and I that it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. My husband and I are both... Read More picky eaters, but Peppers gave us exactly what we wanted. The staff was great too! They were super friendly and worked really quickly. I feel like the staff went above and beyond what was expected of them -Jody, my event manager who planned the event, couldn't be there the day of because of family obligations, but she checked in several times before the wedding to make sure I was still feeling good about everything and didn't have any questions. I met Lisa, my event manager for the day, 15 minutes before the cocktail hour began and she was incredible. We had an issue with the cake that my husband's mom made, and she helped us fix everything. I went to Peppers because of the great food, but the incredible, fun, energetic staff was what really amazed me about Peppers.

We used Pepper's for our July wedding at the Worcester Art Museum and I would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for a great caterer. From start to finish, everyone at Pepper's was very professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. We worked mostly with Liz... Read More O'Neil and Tracy and they were amazing! Liz was so quick to answer emails (and I sent lots of them), and went out of her way to accommodate any requests I brought up, even dealing with numerous food allergies. The tastings were fun and easy, the menu options were amazing, and it made wedding planning so much less stressful knowing that we were in such good hands. They thought of every detail and made our wedding day seamless and wonderful. Totally worth every penny. They even ran a promotion during our wedding month so our three tiered wedding cake was included! Everything was so delicious!

Pepper's turned a rainy wedding into something special

I would give Pepper's more than five stars if I could. They are in the business of wish-fulfillment, and they deliver far beyond expectations. When we, the clients, had vague ideas of what we wanted but no clue how to bring them into being, Pepper's staff members came up with... Read More ingenious and beautiful solutions in every area — menu, cake, site decoration, and flowers. And their food is superb. For me the most stunning thing was Pepper’s’s ability to handle a last-minute change of ceremony venue because of rain: in just a couple of hours, they transformed a bare tent on a gloomy day into a glowing, intimate space for our ceremony. The profusion of flowers and candles warmed up the space and helped to generate a spirit of joy and jollity, turning a disparate assemblage of guests into a happy community. Many of us opined later that we were kind of glad it had rained because the same chemistry would not have happened outside, no matter how beautiful the surroundings. Jody was our behind-the-scenes orchestrator for all the details. She came aboard in mid-job after our first catering rep left the company, and she didn't skip a beat, immediately mastering our menu, schedules, and wedding philosophy, and offering many useful suggestions. To Caitlin — the floral designer — we owe the beautiful work that turned a rainy day from disaster into serendipity. Linda, the pastry chef, gave exquisite expression to our two wedding motifs — mountains and sunflowers — on an amazing wedding cake (which we had originally decided to forego — until we tasted her cakes!). Pepper’s is truly a model for any business, combining efficiency, competence, and know-how with art and heart. You know you’re working with special people when the site manager bursts into tears at the end of your wedding because she was so moved by it!

Quite disappointing

We would not recommend using Pepper’s - overall we had a difficult time working with them, and were unimpressed with the level of service given the high cost. The original Event Designer(ED),our main point of contact, was easy to work with and understood our needs.... Read More Unfortunately, after negotiating and signing a detailed contract (Service Agreement) 5 months earlier, the Event Designer quit 2 months before the wedding. There our troubles began. The new ED told us that our contract did not include enough staffing, even though our final guest headcount was less, not more, than what was in the contract. She insisted that we needed to pay for more staff. At this point, it was too late to go and select another caterer, so we were stuck. We protested but paid more because we were afraid they would sabotage the event. They did not seem to feel responsibility for following through on what they had promised, instead blaming the problem on the departed employee.The owner was unbelievably rude over the phone. Overall, we felt nickled and dimed. There were also many small mistakes (e.g., table layout, menu details) adding to the bride’s stress in that she had to constantly double-check and correct what Pepper’s sent us.It wasn’t our fault their employee left. Also, despite promises that Pepper’s knows how to work seamlessly with the other wedding vendors, we found this not to be the case under pressure. In the days before the wedding, the wedding day threatened rain, which naturally caused some confusion given that the ceremony and cocktail hour were to be outdoors. Pepper’s pushed us to commit to moving it indoors as early as possible, even though we wanted to keep our options open, explaining that we were willing to sacrifice certain things to have it outdoors. Instead of coordinating directly with the venue to come up with a plan, Pepper’s kept trying to make a unilateral decision to move it indoors, which caused confusion and made us feel that they really didn’t care about our satisfaction. In the end, largely thanks to the very proactive and professional venue staff, we were able to make a last minute decision to have things outdoors when the skies cleared. It was lovely, but if Pepper’s had had it their way we would have been inside on what turned out to be a great day. They did not live up to their sales pitch that they were flexible or creative. Finally, the quality of service at the event was not as we had expected. For example, the toasts were made with water, because wine inexplicably took so long to get poured. Dessert was served at one station instead of two as we had agreed. The DJ announced a cake cutting when there was no cake (we had a different dessert), which reflected a lack of communication between Pepper’s and the DJ. The fish was OK but the chicken was tough - not the quality that we had tried during our tasting. Pepper’s did set up the tables beautifully using our decorations and the staff was nice although the bartenders were inexperienced. It was not our fault that their employee quit. We think the upfront staff probably protected others from the owner. Overall we got the impression that he only cares about profits, and not customer satisfaction. When you’re paying so much, you expect a higher level of service. Our interaction with Pepper’s left a bad taste in our mouths, and we would not recommend using them for your wedding.

Pepper's Fine Food Catering is the best! We had the pleasure of working with Jody as our event manager for our wedding on July 26, 2014. From the beginning, Jody and the Peppers team were attentive, responded quickly to emails and phone calls, and always went above and beyond.... Read More If I provided an idea of what we would like, Jody would help us take it one step further to make it memorable. Papper’s provided catering as well as our cake for the wedding. After tasting their food and cake options, it was a no brainer to choose them for our wedding. Everything is extremely fresh and delicious, and customizable. We opted to pair certain sides with different entrees, and this was no problem. Peppers very evidently wants to make your wedding exactly how YOU want it, and this sets them apart from other caterers. On the day of the event, I did not have one worry, because I knew Pepper's had everything under control. I had a sense of ease and confidence because of the professionalism and reliability of this catering company. We have been married for 1 month now, and are already trying to find excuses to throw a party and have it catered by Peppers. :) Future brides out there- If you are looking for someone to partner with you to make your wedding unforgettable, Peppers Fine Food Catering is the place!!!

I Used Peppers based on reviews of other brides.. and to be honest I wish i hadn't.

The food came out cold. My vegetarian friend was served fish, even though her place card was clearly marked Vegetarian.. etc... What is worse, is that issues listed above do not compare to the problems I endured working with one of their consultants, who was very poorly organized, never submitted deliverable on-time, (I had to request updated invoices or updated menu 4-5 times before I actually got one), she didn't seem to be able to do math (thus different bills every week) or read her own handwriting (thus the issue with appetizers, and having to remind her 5 different times with table setting we chose.. )
